The mansion of the Marquis of Xiliang.

The Marquis of Xiliang frowned as he looked at the imperial decree in his hand.

The Marquis of Xiliang did not expect that His Majesty in the palace would suddenly issue an decree to let him, the Marquis of Xiliang, return to Luoyang to perform his duties.

Does Your Majesty really just want to summon these Marquis guarding the frontier back to Luoyang to perform their duties?

I'm afraid not.

The imperial court has always been very jealous of these marquis who are in charge of the frontier army, and they have always wanted to take over the military power of these marquis in charge of the frontier army.

Even when the emperor was in power.

It's just that they never gave the court a chance.

Therefore, the court was also concerned about their influence in the frontier army, and never dared to take action against them easily.

However, before that His Majesty in the palace had decreed that the border troops should be sent south to suppress the rebellion.

Now they have ordered them to return to Luoyang to perform their duties.

In this short period of more than a month, two wills in a row have to be thought-provoking.

The Marquis of Xiliang put down the imperial decree in his hand and frowned in thought.

The Marquis of Xiliang found an excuse to prevaricate the previous will.

So, how to deal with this will now?

Don't look at the sturdy and arrogant appearance of the Marquis of Xiliang, he is not as elegant as the Marquis of Zhenbei, but the Marquis of Xiliang's mind is no worse than that of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

Otherwise, it is impossible to sit on the position of the Marquis of Xiliang and take charge of the army of hundreds of thousands of Xiliang.

"Marquis, the letter from the Prime Minister has already hinted that it was Your Majesty who suppressed the memorial for Marquis to pay military salaries."

"Now Your Majesty has ordered the Hou Ye to return to Luoyang to perform his duties, and by the way, **** the army to return to Xiliang."

"I'm afraid Your Majesty's letting the Hou Ye return to Luoyang is not just as simple as asking the Hou Ye to perform duties and **** the army's salaries!"

A general next to him said solemnly.

The Marquis of Xiliang nodded; "Yes! This Marquis reported that the court wants military pay, and originally wanted to use the military pay to test the majesty in the palace."

"As a result, the majesty in the palace really has an idea for us in Xiliang."

"It seems that the army was not dispatched to the south to suppress the rebellion according to the decree before, so that His Majesty in the palace completely lost his patience with us frontier troops."

The Marquis of Xiliang sighed, his face solemn.

I originally thought that the mountains and rivers of this big week were going to sunset and sink.

But I didn't expect that His Majesty in the palace would forcefully revitalize it.

The man in the palace not only knew the power of the court of the general Wujin's party.

In a short period of time, the rebellion in the four northern states was quelled.

Even the Cui family of Boling, one of the seven great aristocratic families, was killed by the one in the palace.

In this way, the one in the palace is no longer His Majesty who can be checked and balanced by various forces, but His Majesty who has already gathered some power in his hands.

This is not a good omen for the Marquis of Xiliang and the others who are in charge of the frontier army.

"Master Hou, then this army salary..."

The general looked at the Marquis of Xiliang.

The Marquis of Xiliang shook his head and said, "Don't worry about the military salaries, the majesty in the palace won't hold him down for too long."

"The importance of the frontier, that His Majesty knows better than anyone else, and won't let my Xiliang army shake the heart of the army."

"Besides, even if the imperial court doesn't pay me the Xiliang army, my Xiliang army can solve it myself."

"What this Marquis is worried about now is whether the man in the palace will recklessly attack me in the Marquis of Xiliang."

"If that's the case, it's going to be troublesome."

The Marquis of Xiliang frowned, with a deep expression on his face.

The Marquis of Xiliang knew how much he weighed, and even though he was in charge of the army of hundreds of thousands in Xiliang, he could be said to be the emperor of the land in Xiliang.

But compared with the imperial court, his Marquis of Xiliang was not qualified enough to challenge him.

If the court really made up its mind and desperately wanted to take action on him, the Marquis of Xiliang, then he would be in big trouble for the Marquis of Xiliang.

After all, the court is orthodox, and because he is the Marquis of Xiliang, he can make hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops obey orders.

But if his Marquis of Xiliang is no longer the Marquis of Xiliang in the imperial court, no one dares to say how many Xiliang troops would still be willing to obey.

"Master Hou, why don't you contact the Hou of Zhenbei?"

"If I, the Xiliang Army and the Zhenbei Army can help each other, even if His Majesty wants to take action against the Marquis, he will still have some scruples."

The general said suddenly.

When the Marquis of Xiliang heard this, he nodded; "We can only do this first."

Obviously, the Marquis of Xiliang had long thought of contacting Marquis Zhenbei, and the two sides were watching and helping each other.

"Xi Rong has recently invaded my Xiliang, and this Marquis sits at Yumen Pass to resist Xi Rong's attack."

"How to reply to the court, I don't need Ben Hou to teach you!"

The Marquis of Xiliang glanced at the general and said.

The general said immediately; "Don't worry, Lord Hou, you will know how to reply to the court at the end."

...

Luoyang City.

On the official road outside the city.

Two ordinary carriages, escorted by hundreds of elite sergeants, walked slowly along the official road towards Luoyang City.

"Sande, where are you?"

"How far is it to Luoyang?"

A tired voice came from a carriage.

"Back to the lord, there are only three or four miles left from Luoyang."

"We'll be there in less than half an hour."

The driver of the car replied respectfully.

The driver of the car was none other than the housekeeper of the Shu Palace.

Needless to say, the person sitting in the car was the king of Shu, Zhou Zhi, who received an order to return to Luoyang.

After hearing Sande's reply, Zhou Zhi, the king of Shu in the carriage, did not speak again.

The carriage continued along the official road in the direction of Luoyang.

After more than ten minutes, the carriage stopped.

Sande, who was driving the carriage, frowned as he looked at the dozens of figures on the official road in front of him.

"Sande, why did you stop?"

The voice of the King of Shu came from the carriage again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has sent someone to greet the lord."

Sande recognized at a glance that the dozens of figures on the official road in front were all the imperial guards in the palace, and the few standing in the front were eunuchs like him.

These people appeared on the official road outside the city. Needless to say, they must have come to meet the king of Shu by order.

"Oh!"

There was a whisper from the carriage, Zhou Zhi lifted the curtain of the carriage, and the probe came out.

At this time, Cao Zhengchun walked over with someone.

"Cao Zhengchun of the miscellaneous family, I have met His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

"Your Majesty sent the miscellaneous family out of the city, specially to welcome the King of Shu back to Luoyang."

After Cao Zhengchun came over, he bowed his hands to Zhou Zhi, the king of Shu.

In any case, Zhou Zhi is the king of Shu this time, and there should be etiquette.

However, Cao Zhengchun called himself a miscellaneous family, and did not call himself an old slave.

It's not that Cao Zhengchun didn't take the King of Shu seriously, but that in this noble family, there was only one person who could make Cao Zhengchun call himself an old slave.

That is the majesty on the dragon chair.

Cao Zhengchun?

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhou Zhi's eyes.

The name of Cao Zhengchun, Zhou Zhi is already well-known even in Shu.

One of the two half-step celestial beings beside the emperor, the director of the East Factory in charge of the East Factory.

Previously, the official residences of the General's Mansion, the Minister of Officials, and the Minister of Rites were all destroyed by Cao Zhengchun.

In particular, the Banbu Heavenly Man in the General's Mansion was also killed by Cao Zhengchun.

This is enough to show that the character of Cao Zhengchun is unusual.

Zhou Zhi did not expect that Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, who came to greet him, the king of Shu, would die.

When San De next to him heard Cao Zhengchun reporting himself to his home, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

No wonder he felt a strong threat from this leading eunuch. It turned out that this leading **** was Cao Zhengchun, a half-step heavenly man.

Zhou Zhi glanced at Cao Zhengchun and said with a gentle smile, "I'm sorry to trouble Eunuch Cao."

"Eunuch Cao destroyed the Great General's Mansion and killed the half-step celestial beings in the Great General's Mansion. This king has already heard about it in Shu."

"With a master like Eunuch Cao, His Majesty the Emperor can be considered a lot easier."

This was the first time Zhou Zhi saw Cao Zhengchun.

Looking at Cao Zhengchun's white temples, he was smiling.

I couldn't help sighing in my heart, it really is that people can't look at their appearance, and the sea water can't be measured.

It is hard to imagine that such a person is the ruthless man who was in charge of the East Factory and destroyed the residences of the generals and important officials of the court.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is wrong, this is what miscellaneous families should do."

"Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace for His Royal Highness the King of Shu, His Royal Highness, let's go back to Luoyang!"

Cao Zhengchun said softly.

Zhou Zhi nodded; "Okay, I'll trouble Eunuch Cao."

After that, Zhou Zhi got into the carriage again.

Then, Cao Zhengchun took the imperial army and walked towards Luoyang with the carriage of the King of Shu.

...

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After Cao Zhengchun and the King of Shu returned to Luoyang, Cao Zhengchun took the King of Shu into the palace and went directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to meet Zhou Chen.

"My brother has seen His Majesty."

As soon as he entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhou Zhi bowed to Zhou Chen on the dragon chair.

Even if Zhou Zhihe and Zhou Chen are the emperor's brother and the emperor's brother, the etiquette of the emperor and his ministers still has to be observed.

In this era of imperial power and monarchy, no matter how close the relationship is, the distinction between monarch and minister cannot be ignored.

Zhou Chen glanced at Zhou Zhi and said with a smile, "The ninth brother is back."

"Don't be too polite."

"What else do you have to do with the emperor?"

Zhou Chen got up and walked down, walked to Zhou Zhi's side, and helped Zhou Zhi up.

"Brother Huang, the etiquette of this monarch and minister can't be careless."

"We are monarchs and ministers first, and brothers later. This is clear."

"I don't want to be seen by those ministers in the court as a rude person who doesn't know the etiquette of monarchs and ministers."

Zhou Zhi stood up and said seriously.

Zhou Chen shook his head; "You!"

"It's still true."

"Is it going well this way?"

With that said, Zhou Chen asked Cao Zhengchun to bring in two squatting chairs.

Then, Zhou Chen and Zhou Zhi sat down opposite each other.

"It went well, and nothing happened along the way."

After Zhou Zhi sat down, he nodded and said.

"That's good."

"How is the situation in Shu?"

"There has never been an unprecedented drought in the four northern states. Could it be affected by the drought in Shu?"

Zhou Chen asked about the situation of Zhou's rule in Shu.

Zhou Zhi shook his head and said, "Shu has not been affected by the drought, everything is fine."

Zhou Zhi and Zhou Chen described some situations in Shu.

The two chatted like this for half an hour.

After half an hour, Zhou Zhi got up and retire, leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhou Chen looked at the back of Zhou Zhi's departure, his eyes were a little deep.

"Cao Zhengchun."

"How is this King of Shu?"

Zhou Chen suddenly asked.

"Your Majesty, this old slave doesn't know."

Cao Zhengchun lowered his head.

Just kidding, can this kind of question be answered by his slave?

Cao Zhengchun knew how much he weighed. Although he was the admiral of Dongchang, he could be said to be a high authority.

But after all, he is just a knife in the hands of the emperor.

Some things can be done, but some things can never be said.

Especially when it comes to royal affairs like this, it is not something that a servant of him can refer to.

Otherwise, you are digging a hole for yourself.

Don't you know?

Zhou Chen smiled and did not embarrass Cao Zhengchun any more.

He knew that it was not that Cao Zhengchun did not know, but that he did not dare to know.

Smart people tend to live longer.

Zhou Chen looked at the figure that had disappeared outside the hall, and muttered to himself: "Zhou Zhi, Zhou Zhi, look at the mother's face, I will give you the opportunity."

"If you don't know how to cherish, no one can save you."

"The King of Hell is hard to persuade a damned ghost."

Zhou Chen returned to the dragon chair, continued to handle government affairs, and reviewed his memorial.

...

After Zhou Zhi walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, his brows furrowed.

Sure enough.

Is he really the emperor's brother Zhou Chen?

Zhou Zhi's heart was filled with doubts.

If it wasn't for his appearance, it was his imperial brother Zhou Chen. Zhou Zhi had some doubts that the imperial brother in the Hall of Mental Cultivation was a fake.

Apart from the same appearance, everything else is completely different from before.

Whether it is the way of talking, the wisdom in his eyes, and the momentum he exudes, there is a big difference from before.

Can a person really be reborn to such a degree?

Also, he has been frail and sick since he was a child, and his health has always been bad, but now it seems that his body has really fully recovered.

What is it that can make a person who has been frail and sick since childhood make a complete and complete recovery, and how big is the change?

Zhou Zhi thought to himself.

Judging from the contact with Zhou Chen as soon as he entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhou Zhi felt that Zhou Chen was different from before.

The difference before and after is obvious.

In particular, during their conversation, Zhou Chen silently tested his situation in Shu more than once.

If it wasn't for Zhou Zhi's quick reaction, I'm afraid he would have been trapped by Zhou Chen silently.

In the past, Zhou Chen did not have such wisdom, nor did he have such deep thoughts.

However, the only thing that makes Zhou Zhi feel at ease is that the emperor Zhou Chen has a kind attitude towards his ninth brother~www.wuxiahere.com~ In this way, the things in the palace before should not have been found out. .

This is good news.

Otherwise, Zhou Chen, the emperor's attitude towards him would not be like this.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi was slightly relieved.

Before, he had always been a little worried about this matter.

It's good now, it's good that he hasn't been found out, and he can be relieved a lot.

Zhou Zhi turned back and took a deep look at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and then walked directly to the Cining Palace.

After meeting Zhou Chen, the emperor, Zhou Zhi naturally had to visit his mother as soon as possible.

This time Zhou Zhi was able to return to Luoyang so logically, but it was all thanks to his mother-in-law!
